About Chicken milanese

Chicken Milanese is a classic Italian dish originating from Milan, featuring thinly pounded chicken cutlets coated in a crispy breadcrumb crust. The chicken is dipped in flour, egg wash, and seasoned breadcrumbs before being pan-fried to golden perfection. Traditionally served with a wedge of lemon, it’s often paired with a light arugula salad or roasted vegetables for balance. Protein-rich and lean, the chicken provides a substantial nutritional base. However, frying adds fat and calories, making portion control key for those watching their intake. Opting for whole-grain breadcrumbs or baking instead of frying can offer a healthier spin. A versatile choice, Chicken Milanese delivers bold flavor with simple, wholesome ingredients rooted in Italian culinary tradition.
